Bill to prevent US withdrawal from INF
People probably saw that presidential candidate Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has introduced a bill in Congress to prevent US from withdrawing from INF. I saw an excerpt from her press conference on CNN yesterday but have only been able to find brief references to this on RT and Reddit, not on mainstream media. since. Interesting.
"Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard has introduced a bill to Congress which would prevent President Donald Trump from withdrawing the US from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF).
Speaking at a press conference on Friday morning, Gabbard said that Trump’s decision to pull out of the 1988 treaty was“reckless,” was “exacerbating a new Cold War” with Russia, and could spark another arms race.
"The bill would prohibit “a single taxpayer dollar from being used for weapons that would breach the treaty,” she said. The bill is co-sponsored by three of Gabbard's House colleagues including freshman congresswoman Rep. Ilhan Omar.”
